Harrods in the process of settling over 250 claims against Al Fayed

Quick Summary:

The store says the women alleging sexual misconduct against Mohamed Al Fayed came forward after a BBC documentary aired.

The billionaire businessman, who died last year aged 94, is accused of multiple counts of rape and attempted rape by several women who worked for him - many of whom felt unable to report what had happened until recently.

It is unclear if there is some overlap between the women seeking compensation from Harrods and those pursuing legal action.
